 Reduction Initiatives
Gran Tierra Energy goes beyond compliance to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions at its facilities. As previously discussed, one example of concrete action that Gran Tierra is undertaking is its Gas-to-Power Program that converts excess natural gas that would otherwise be flared and uses it instead for power generation.
GTE made major progress in 2018 towards its goal of reducing flare emissions by completing the implementation of the Gas-to-Power Project at the Moqueta field.At year end almost 99% of gas at the Moqueta field that would otherwise have been flared was being used for power generation. In addition, the gas-to-power project at the Costayaco field has been operating reliably since 2017.
Gran Tierra Energy is also implementing the Gas-to-Power project at the Acordionero field, GTE’s single biggest producing asset and is working towards the goal of zero flare emissions at this field. This project is mechanically complete and will be in operation by the end of 2019.
